BATUK: BRITAIN'S COLONIAL GRIP IN KENYA
BATUK: The White Man’s Burden in Kenya is not just a documentary about a British military base where soldiers roll around in the dirt for six months before returning home to the UK. It is a documentary about abuse of power, occupation of indigenous land and the unfinished business of colonialism.
For decades, ordinary Kenyans living around BATUK have raised allegations of abuse, sexual violence, ecological destruction and impunity, while one of the world’s most powerful former colonial powers continues to operate freely on Kenyan soil, handing out small amounts of compensation whenever evidence of alleged crimes reaches the media.
At the centre of the documentary is the story of Agnes Wanjiru, a 21-year-old Kenyan woman who was tortured, killed and dumped in a septic tank, while British soldiers mocked and ridiculed her death on social media. One soldier posed in front of the septic tank and posted, “If you know, you know.” Others joked about the five-month-old daughter she left behind, posting imagery of a baby beside a gravesite.
But the story goes beyond Agnes and her tragic killing and the shocking behaviour of British troops thereafter. The documentary asks deeper questions:
How did Britain maintain a military presence in Kenya, the very same year the country supposedly gained independence?
Why are foreign troops still training on stolen land while local communities continue to suffer?
And above all, why does the Kenyan government allow all of this?
Laikipia County, currently in the spotlight because of plans for an Ebola quarantine facility for US citizens, is the very same county where the BATUK military base is headquartered. This documentary helps connect the dots about why Kenya’s political elite remain so willing to cede sovereignty to foreign powers like Britain, and why they may be willing to do the same again with the United States.

Dr. Khalid on communism
“I’m not going to put down one cracker, a capitalist cracker and pick up a communist cracker, a cracker is a cracker, is a cracker”
The only brand of ‘-isms’ Jaywon subscribes to is the ones that sets as its ultimate goal the breaking of the arms of white power over Black people and the reconstruction of African civilization. Anything short of that is pure jive.
"The true nationalist is entrepreneurial: he's building something; he's constructing something.
We see that in Garvey; not just a concern with the past, not just an identification with Egypt and other great Afrikan Empires of the past, not just picking up little detail upon little detail of some Afrikan past, but of a sound movement forward in concrete, brick and mortar construction; a sound, hands-on developing and actualization of Afrikan ideology and political development.
He is one who thrusts his fear aside and moves forward, the true Afrikan nationalist."
